National Pancake Day is February 17th! It's a globally recognized date to celebrate the delicious goodness of pancakes. I'm not picky about what time of day I eat pancakes. Breakfast, lunch or supper - doesn't matter to me. I am, however, somewhat picky about how I eat my pancakes. I prefer mine to be somewhat thin, with golden crisp edges.

I was given the opportunity to make my own delicious pancakes using Hungry Jack Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix, and the T-fal OptiCook Fry Pan. As the #1 cookware brand in the US and the inventor of the non-stick pan, T-fal knows a thing or two about cooking foods to perfection and their OptiCook fry pan will help to ensure that your pancake creations come off without a hitch. And a huge shout-out to the company's longevity; They are celebrating their 60th anniversary this year!

Hungry Jack's Pancake Mix only requires you to add water. It's easy peasy! In just a few short minutes, I've got a stack of pancakes ready for my belly. Although maple syrup is my favorite topping for pancakes, sometimes I like to add mixed berries to the side, and use the juices from the berries as added flavor to my pancakes. Hungry Jack has a variety of great recipes to use if you want to get creative with their pancake mix, or you can just add their Hungry Jack Original Syrup for smooth sweetness. It comes in a bottle that is designed to fit and heat in the microwave, and contains an indicator on the label that shows you when it's hot.

I'm not an artist by any means but like to make pancakes for my kids in the shapes of funny faces and silly animals. I add facial features with the syrup. The kids get a kick out of it, and they are also fans of how the pancakes taste.

Hungry Jack pancakes are quite easy to make with the T-fal OptiCook Fry Pan. It's a nonstick pan with patented Thermospot technology that indicates when the pan is preheated by the pattern spot in the middle changing to solid red. Pancakes, and other foods, don't stick to the pan. And it's no chore getting it clean.
